The San Diego Chapter of the Association for Women in Science (AWIS) Outreach committee is hosting a panel discussion for women undergraduates interested in careers in science and engineering. This event would greatly benefit undergraduates in San Diego County who are in pursuit of a degree in science, technology, engineering or mathematics. Because you are in a position to inspire and encourage future scientists, we would appreciate if you could forward the following announcement to those you think might be interested.
This is an afternoon event geared towards undergraduate women.
The purpose of this event is to provide an opportunity for undergraduate women to interact one-on-one with female scientists and engineers.
This is a small event with approximately 30 undergraduate women and
10-12 AWIS panelists. The event consists of a panel discussion followed by a sit-down meal where the girls can ask questions about careers in the sciences and interact informally with our panelists.
Location : Donald P. Shiley BioScience Center, San Diego State University, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, CA 92182
